The chemical industry works with several aggressive and explosive chemicals on a daily basis.

The machinery and equipment used for chemical processes are different from those used in other industries because of the nature of materials in use. Because of the corrosiveness of the materials, ordinary equipment will get damaged very easily and need to be replaced often. Having to buy new equipment frequently leads to rising costs.

Chemicals can be damaging

That is the reason why specialized equipment and machinery are used in the chemical industry, which will not be damaged even when they come in contact with aggressive chemicals.

Komax Systems Inc, the world’s leading manufacturer and supplier of static mixers and heat exchangers, produce specialized mixers for the chemical industry.

Their Teflon coated triple action static mixer is the most popular product widely used in the chemical industry. In fact, the Teflon lined mixer was made by Komax, especially for the chemical industry.

This particular kind of static mixer makes sure that working with corrosive chemicals and additives delivers the best results. If you are in the chemical industry, the Teflon Lined Static Mixer guarantees durability and efficiency.

The Teflon Lined Static Mixer is made of stainless steel and coated with Teflon. It’s a great pick for use with corrosive chemicals. Regular static mixers get damaged by chemicals, but since this is a Teflon coated mixer, it is safe from any kind of damage.
